Please consider supporting a fundraiser on Dec. 1 to support a small health clinic in Ghana repair their water system. The event is being sponsored by two on-campus student associations: the Alpha Kappa Alphas and the Health Science Student Association.

One of the students went on a Marygrove trip to Ghana this past year and was moved by the conditions in a health clinic they visited. This clinic has a small, overworked staff that serves the entire region with basic health services. Their water system has broken down so they are currently collecting rain water as their major source of water. The HSSA and the AKAs would like to have a fundraising event to raise $5000 to repair their water system. If we manage to raise more money than that, we can even upgrade and build a well for them!
